I have lost track with recent accidents and changes of ownership…
Who owns the trio of 1as now? I know one is owned by the IWM.
I know MJ772 landed in a field a few weeks back, but Spirit of Kent is ok I hope?

Any updates on EN224?
The Mk XII is together with a twenties series Spit the most anticipated version to fly (if you ask me).

I’d have to say the prospect of a Seafire 46 is rather interesting.

Closely followed by EP122 Biggin Hill
The way it’s currently looking, EP122 will be the first to fly!
I believe MT818 was very close to getting back into the air quite a few weeks ago now, but that’s gone quiet again.

MH415 is on the way to Australia so I understand.
Dismantling and packing is scheduled for October 2015.

re;
And how many minutes a year does it spend ‘roaring overhead’ compared with the time it spends on the ground, in front of the public?
90% of the public wont care

re;
Promoting the IWM sites -in particular Duxford.
It doesnt make much difference when its roaring overhead, its not as if you can see the logo. I’m just glad shes still flying, and not stuck on a riduculous turntable like the airwirthy P51 at Hendon.

Achieve much in terms of what?
By: David Burke - 21st September 2015 at 18:46
Maybe -or maybe people look at the attention to detail expended on the aircraft and wonder does it achieve much !
By: Mike J - 21st September 2015 at 17:43
I’m sure they just did it to annoy the anoraks

So you don’t think that IWM are paying the (not insubstantial) operating costs?
Wouldn’t have thought so given budgets etc. Even if they were what would be the advantage of putting your own name on it?
